How to Remove or Customize the (dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm) Label from Date Fields in Dev Instance?

[Jayesh 315]

Hi Community,

In my developer instance, I’ve noticed that all the date and date/time fields are displaying a label like (dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm) next to the field label. As shown in SS.
While I understand it’s meant to indicate the expected format, it’s a bit distracting and clutters the UI. I’d like to either remove this label entirely or customize it.

Is there a global system property or configuration I can use to control this?

@Jayesh 315 Found the property...

Go to profile -> Preference -> Accessibility ->Disable "Show date and time formats on forms" property.

Siva

It's in your Preferences > Accessibility > Show date and time formats on forms.

If you want to change the actual format, Preferences > Language & Region > Date and time format.
